It is very difficult to share PDF files with friends who do not have Adobe Reader or a similar PDF software installed. One solution to this would be to convert the PDF file into some other format such as JPG images or DOC word files. But that process seems tedious.

The best solution is offered by the online PDF viewer and editor named “CrocoDoc.”

CrocoDoc is a website that handles PDF files by letting you view and annotate them. Usage of the website is completely free. Since the web tools it offers are HTML5-based, you do not need to have Adobe Flash installed in order to use CrocoDoc.


  1. You start by uploading a PDF file to the site using the “Upload Document” button located on the homepage. Your file is quickly loaded up and displayed in the site’s HTML5 interface. The interface is neat and uncluttered, facilitating convenient reading.
  2. Using tools in the top left you can edit your uploaded PDF file. These edits mainly let you annotate the PDF file by leaving comments, drawing on it, highlighting certain sections, and typing additional text.
  3. The comments you leave can be seen to the right of the document along with all the other edits you made.
  4. When you have finished annotating your document, you can click on the “Share” button in the top right and obtain the PDF file’s viewing URL. You can also get an embeddable code for the PDF that can be used on your site or blog. Emailing the PDF from the website is also supported.


Visitors to the URL can view and annotate the PDF just like you did. They can also download the PDF file in its original or annotated form.

In conclusion, CrocoDoc is valuable web application that helps you annotate PDF files online and share them with your friends who do not have a PDF software installed. Its user-friendly interface makes it very simply to use and the tools it offers get the annotation job done excellently.
